Hi. Sorry if this is obvious or answered elsewhere, but I'm wondering if you could explain the benefits of this fork? I suspect this is the firmware I want, as it seems to be easier to flash via openOCD/SWD. I also see you're using the Nordic Softdevice, which implies that the original doesn't. I'm curious about the benefits of this?
Also if I were to flash this via SWD, would I flash it at address 0x0?
Thanks,
Dan.

Hi! It’s stated on the Readme file, basically by using the Softdevice will use a lot less battery than the original one, at least at the moment when I wrote this, I’m not sure if they improved the original firmware to optimize battery power.

Thanks. And sorry - I can't believe I missed that!
